Most of my work is sharp, focused builds: custom WordPress with bespoke JS logic, Stripe payment flows, GA4 conversion tracking, and Supabase + Vue 3 for clients moving beyond brochure sites toward real products. I'm Chris, a senior full-stack developer based in South Africa (GMT+2), with strong overlap on EU and US-East hours. I think through architecture, edge cases, and long-term maintainability. Clients have called me "a thinking developer who anticipates needs" and described my work as "exceptional precision and judgment". I focus on clarity, correct behaviour, and clean handover, so you can trust the result and the next person can read the code. Verticals I work in most often: SMB payments and checkout (Stripe, PayFast), NGO and purpose-driven platforms, sport-performance and education SaaS, and small-business marketing sites that need to actually convert. What I do most: • WordPress + custom JS + Elementor. $2,000 Custom Financial Platform with persona routing, JS calculators, and LiteSpeed performance tuning (5.0 stars, "restructuring site architecture, committed to quality"). Brochure + form + subscription site with PayFast checkout (5.0 stars). My highest-converting lane. • Stripe payment integrations + GA4 conversion tracking. Stripe Elements + discount-code logic on a live payments page (5.0 stars, "fast and effective, most efficient solution") and GA4 server-side conversion tracking on WordPress + Stripe. The pattern: PaymentIntents, webhooks, server-side reconciliation, documented handover. • Custom JavaScript on existing themes and frameworkless stacks. 152-hour Senior Full-Stack retainer on a vanilla PHP + JS + CSS + HTML codebase ($5,320). Comfortable working inside custom themes without a framework. Not a Laravel or Symfony framework specialist. • Supabase + Vue 3 for clients moving beyond WordPress. Components, dashboards, Pinia, TypeScript, deployed on Vercel. Active products I run: Spyre AMS (athlete management), TrackHQ (sport analytics), upwork-brain (proposal intelligence). For new builds that need a real product, not a brochure. • Carrd microsites + UX fixes. Dynamic Carrd microsite + scroll/anchor fix for the same client across two phases (5.0 stars both, "operates with exceptional precision and judgment", "delivered beyond expectations"). Niche specialty, available on request. • Fixes, refactors, audits. WordPress + Divi development (5.0 stars, "He was fantastic"), Supabase + Vercel restore, security tuning, SEO redirects, AI-assisted code review and tidy-up. How I work: • Day 1 to 2: read the brief twice, ask the sharp questions, write a short scope doc with milestones and a flat estimate. • Week 1: first working increment deployed to staging or a preview URL. Never silence. • Ongoing: short async updates with screenshots, blockers flagged within a working day, clean Git history. • At handover: a README that a non-me developer can pick up cold. Not a fit if you need a same-day plugin patch on a site you can't grant access to, 24/7 chat-style support, a 6-month Laravel or Symfony framework build, or someone to manage offshore subcontractors. I work hands-on, solo, on bounded scopes. If you need someone who reads the brief carefully, owns the problem, and leaves the codebase in a better state, that's the work I do best.

No juniors. When you hire me, you get architect-level execution from day one. I specialize in taking complex requirements and turning them into stable, production-grade reality. What I build - SaaS Platforms & Marketplaces: End-to-end builds using Laravel and React/NextJS. - Business Automation: CRM pipelines, internal workflows, and replacing manual processes. - System Upgrades & Refactoring: Modernizing existing scripts without breaking core logic. - Customer & Admin Portals: Secure, role-based dashboards that make data manageable. - High-Performance Websites: Custom-engineering websites for businesses that have outgrown templates. How I work - Direct 1-on-1 Collaboration: You have a direct line to the person writing the code. - Business-First Thinking: I focus on your ROI and operational efficiency, not just "cool tech." - Surgical Stability: I’m highly experienced in modifying sensitive, logic-heavy systems safely. - Reliable Delivery: Clear communication and strict adherence to timelines.
